Vulcan Open Hex Bar - OX BarPre-Order. This item is estimated to be in stock January 27th to February 15th The Vulcan Open Hex Bar offers the ruggedness and durability of our other hex bars with the features of an open side that enables the user to accomplish exercises that may not be facilitated by a traditional Hex or High Hex Bar. The value of the Hex bar is that it allows loading of the hips, core, and legs with minimal stress on the lower lumbar region.

Was able to get the OX bar in Jan 2019. Some small issues when it came, then Covid hit causing delays, understandable. The Vulcan team handled the issues well with great communication and transparency. Just got a new set of handles for it this week which have helped make this bar a home run as far as open design trap bars go. Huge plus that they aren’t charging an insane price point as others have. Happy with my purchase. Solid addition.

Good quality trap bar. Comparable to the competition at a much lower cost. Bolts the hold the collars are small but so far they've held up well.

Love this bar. Bar jack works great. Rackable (while the kabuki strength bar is not). Knurling is more on the aggressive side, which I like. And the fat handles are great for grip training. Did have one issue, the handles would unscrew a little bit when lifting with heavier weights. I tightened them with an Allen wrench and it's fine now. Not worth a full star coming off on the score but not something I feel should be necessary on a $500 bar. Would absolutely buy again.
